Reluctant Circularities: The interplay between integration, return and circular migration within the Albanian migration to Italy

Authors Nick MAI
Description
The findings of the METOIKOS research project do not corroborate a politicised celebration of the circularisation of migration as a win-win situation for both countries of origin and destination. The majority of migrants interviewed in this research were reluctantly and ambivalently oscillating between Albania and Italy. For most, circulating is a way to achieve the migratory flexibility they need to negotiate their livelihoods between societies and labour markets characterised by the different opportunities, predicaments and degrees of socioeconomic and political instability. Most Albanian migrants do not choose to circulate, but accept to do so in order to secure the sustainability of projects of settlement abroad and/or return home which are still not completed or which became unsustainable in the context of the global financial crisis of the late 2000s. For younger people and women, particularly if they are studying, oscillating between Albania and Italy is both a way to reconcile the contradictory moral worlds brought together by their diasporic trajectories and a way to gain the socio-cultural capital to bypass widespread dynamics of corruption and preferential access to the labour market in Albania.

Preventing human trafficking Positive Deviance methodology in practice

Authors Anette Brunovskis, Rebecca Surtees
Description
This paper, jointly authored by Fafo and NEXUS Institute, is intended as a resource for practitioners working in the field of trafficking prevention. We discuss our experiences in developing a trafficking prevention project, based on positive deviance methodology. This project was implemented in a town in Albania, in collaboration with the Albanian organisation Different & Equal. First we offer an overview of the positive deviance methodology; then we outline potential and previous uses of positive deviance in the trafficking field; next we provide a description of the pilot prevention project in Albania; and finally we explore some overarching issues and considerations in using positive deviance to prevent trafficking, highlighting both potential opportunities and limitations. We end with an annotated bibliography that offers a list of literature and resources on positive deviance methodology generally, as well as specifically in terms of its application in the field of human trafficking.

The Incomplete Trajectory of Albanian Migration in Greece

Authors Eda Gemi
Description
The study addresses the irregular migration of Albanians to Greece. In particular, it analyses the key findings of the fieldwork with 87 Albanian migrants, the dynamic of irregular migration from Albania to Greece, the factors and the actors who affect them as well as the success or failure of the relevant migration policies. The report shows that the expanding possibility of legal entry into Greece has had the immediate consequence of limiting irregular border crossing. What emerges is that the dynamic of attraction exerted by the demand for seasonal work in sectors like tourism and agriculture, is critical in shaping the irregular migration map. The data of the case study showed that irregular flows are not significantly implicating new migrants. Rather, we see that the involvement of those who perhaps possess even rudimentary information about the Greek environment and maintain contacts with the migration networks (ethnic, family and/or with Greek employers) in Greece. Finally, the migration plans of Albanians have been shaped accordingly with the impact of the crisis on opportunities for employment in Greece, the legal status, the level of influence and facilitation provided by migration networks, the migration policies, the liberalisation of the entry visa for Albanian nationals (implemented in December 2010), the bilateral relations between Albanian and Greece, and the unstable political and socio-economic situation in Albania.

Circular Migration between Albania and Greece: A case study

Authors Thanos MAROUKIS, Eda GEMI
Description
Although diverse back-and-forth migration patterns of Albanians have been taking place throughout the 1990s and 2000s, the phenomenon of circular migration is the most under-researched of all. This case study intends to bring up the diversity of the circular patterns of mobility of the Albanian migrants, try to understand the prospects of this circularity for the parties involved (the migrant, the employer, the host economy and the economy of origin), and critically assess policies at both sides of the border that promote or put obstacles to different types of circularity.

MIDWEB: Migration for Development of the Western Balkans

Description
From 1.2.2010 to 30.11.2012 the project MIDWEB made a contribution to the reconstruction and the development of the countries Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Republic of Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia and UNSC Resolution 1244 administered Kosovo. This was facilitated by a temporary mission of highly-qualified persons, who originate from these countries and lived during the project in Austria, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Switzerland and in the United Kingdom. The project focused particularly on capacity-building in certain fields of local organisations in the target countries. The project is managed by IOM in partnership with the Migration, Asylum, Refugees Regional Initiative (MARRI), the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees in Germany and the Vienna Institute for International Economic Studies (WIIW), and is funded by the European Commission.

"Use it or lose it!" How do migration, human capital and the labour market interact in the Western Balkans?

Authors Isilda Mara, Michael Landesmann
Description
The six Western Balkan countries (hereafter ‘the WB6’) are quite well-researched in terms of migration, human capital and labour market issues. However, most studies have focused on one of these three individual topics rather than addressing them together, thus missing the skills-related interactions between these various fields. Aiming to understand the impact of migration on the skills pool and skill utilisation in the WB6, and the implications it may have for their future economic development, the ETF’s project ‘Migration and human capital in the Western Balkans’ brought together the three areas under an integrated analytical framework. This report is the last of a series of country studies (Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo1, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Serbia) and technical papers undertaken within the project during 2020–21. It is a regional assessment of the triangular relationships amongst migration, labour market dynamics and human capital development over the past decade, with cross-country comparisons.

Governing Irregular Migration: States, Actors and Intermediaries

Principal investigator Anna Triandafyllidou (PI)
Description
The project asked two main research questions: How do migration control policies affect the plans and actions of prospective (and actual) irregular migrants? and, why some policies are more successful than others? In seeking to answer these questions, four empirical issues were addressed: (a) how migrants make and change their plans despite legal restrictions at destination countries; (b) which are the actors (national, local, transnational, state or non-state) that affect their decisions and actions; (c) how do these actors affect the decision making of potential migrants, their plans and actions ; (d) why specific actors are more effective than state policies in shaping migrants plans and decisions. The empirical research undertaken in this project concentrated on three migration systems within which irregular migration is an important component of overall migration towards Greece: Migration System 1.Balkans to EU migration system: Albania to Greece; Migration System 2. Eastern Europe to EU migration system: Georgia and Ukraine to Greece; Migration System 3. Southeast Asia to EU migration system Pakistan and Afghanistan to Greece.

Op zoek naar veilige(r) landen. Onderzoek naar beweegredenen van asielzoekers

Authors The Dutch Advisory Committee on Migration Affairs (Adviescommissie voor Vreemdelingenzaken, ACVZ)
Description
Een advies over de komst van asielzoekers uit door Nederland als veilig aangemerkte landen. Waarom dienen zij een asielaanvraag in, terwijl de kans op inwilliging nihil is? Uit het onderzoek is gebleken dat motieven voor personen om uit veilig aangemerkte landen te vertrekken zeer divers zijn en een krachtige drijfveer vormen voor migratie naar ‘Europa’. Die motieven komen bijvoorbeeld voort uit een gebrek aan perspectief in eigen land – armoede, werkloosheid, ongelijkheid – versterkt door gebrekkig bestuur en corruptie en zijn krachtiger dan de aantrekkingskracht van Nederland. Nederland is dan ook vaak niet de eerste bestemmingskeuze. Tijdens de reis ontstaan meer pullfactoren voor Nederland, die vaak zijn ingegeven door verhalen van landgenoten over Nederland. Op basis van dit onderzoek doet de ACVZ de volgende aanbevelingen: • 1) Pak de grondoorzaken van migratie aan en overweeg legale migratiekanalen. • 2) Zet in op een geharmoniseerde EU-definitie van veilig land en uniforme toepassing ervan. • 3) Verkort de Dublinprocedure en/of doe meer zaken zelf af. • 4) Versterk de inzet op terugkeer. Bied maatwerk inreisverboden en terugkeerondersteuning. • 5) Richt informatiecampagnes in, ook op personen die al onderweg zijn.
